“The Seven Samurai” aka “Shichinin no samurai” in its native Japanese language is a Japanese movie of the 1950s’ where the plight of the poor Japanese farmers of an village is showed who suffer at the hands of the local bandits.It is a black and white movie.Even when i saw a DVD rip in my PC a couple of years ago, there wasn’t much clarity.Obviously, an 1954 movie and you can’t expect more.The village farmers who are haunted by the local bandits hire seven Samurais to defend themselves.It is definitely one of the greatest and the most influential movie that i have ever seen.The initial stages of the movie showed poverty and fear in its true form.I don’t remember any of the names to be very frank.Even had i remembered, it would be very difficult for me to spell those Japanese names.Whats great in this serious movie is that , the script still offers some comedy in it.I remember an occasion where an Samurai says before going to the war the next day” Make lots of love with your wife’s today.The climax as expected is won by the samurais but loosing four of them.The villagers celebrate the victory and are busy singing rhymes and harvesting their crops while the Samurais are looking at it ignored by the farmers.May be the film says that the ruling class and the (farmers and peasants)working class can never get together.
